Hangin' Out


I was so proud I caught this picture because both Rider and Josie use each other as a pillow from time to time. I hadn't been able to get it on camera until this weekend. We were in Stillwater hanging out with the fam and watching TV.

Babies' First Easter

By the time we got home we were too late to get both Rider and Josie to pose for a picture, but here is the princess in her first Easter Dress.

Rider and Daddy in their Easter outfits too! Aren't they handsome!


Everyone happy in their Easter best!



Outfits from the OTHER Martins

These cute striped outfits were a gift from our good friends the Martins. Greg and Michele and Maggie, Kelsey, Allie and Jake Martin are friends that go back to my parents college days. I love the outfits and took these pictures especially to send to the Martins. Of course I haven't done that yet, but I LOVE these pictures and couldn't wait to post them.

Can you believe I had a baby that has eyelashes like these? I think Josie will be jealous unless hers really catch up as they get older. She didn't really have ANY eyelashes when she was born, and hers are beautiful now so maybe they'll keep growing. I have always complained about my stubby eyelashes, and I'm proud my kiddos won't have to. :)

I love how enthralled they are with their Daddy in this picture. Mia loves to watch both babies when Jeff and I come in the room because they really are paying attention to us these days. We feel special!

Cousins Visit

Uncle Steve and Aunt Lisa brought Luke and Claire (and Mia) to Jenks to go to the aquarium and then to see us in Owasso. We had a great day and enjoyed our family time!

Mia stayed the night, and then Rider and Josie and I took her back to Stillwater and spent the day there. It has been difficult this winter for all four of the cousins to be well at the same time so we took advantage of our time together.

First Veggies! March 30th


I don't know why I put the pink bib on Rider, but I do remember being a little nervous trying something new.

First Birthday Party


Rider and Josie attended their first birthday party. It wasn't our first invitation, but it was the first one we were able to make. Ava turned two and invited us to her house for the big day. The picture is Ava and her mother, Kimberly, me and then Chloe holding Josie and her mother Lindsey. We had lots of fun, and lots of our friends got to meet Rider and Josie for the first time.

Four Generations


I really wanted to take this picture the day before when I had makeup and "real clothes" on, but it didn't work out that way. I am just proud to get to take this picture so it's going on the blog. I haven't gotten to take one with my Dad and his parents yet, but it is on "the list". :)

Spring Break in Sallisaw


We went on a walk with Nana. and this picture was taken in front of Cousins Bill and Rhonda's house.

St. Patrick's Day

We had a big day that day. Rider and Josie had their NICU follow-up appointment and then we went to Sallisaw. I waited too long in the day to take their picture, but I just HAD to have them in their pretty green outfits.

First Spoon Feeding
















Kimberly's Pictures March 14th





My friend Kimberly took these pictures at her house just for fun! Isn't she good? They look prefessional! And aren't these babies CUTE!

Don't Go Away

Hi Friends and Family!

Please do NOT give up on me and my blog. I do have plans to update the blog with pictures of my precious babies. They are growing SO FAST. They just celebrated their first "half birthday." You may not get a full blown update with all our activities, but I am going to add pictures ASAP. We are so busy living--I just don't have the time to post pictures and information very often. Please bare with me, and don't stop visiting our blog.

Also for those friends and family that haven't received thank you notes and/or announcements...PLEASE know it isn't because I don't appreciate you and your gifts! I am DESPERATELY trying to get the notes written and sent before Rider and Josie's first birthday--NOT FUNNY, and I know some of you are laughing at me RIGHT NOW!

Love and HUGS
